"I found it. There's a castle on that mountain."

"... it's true. I didn't expect you to discover the Hermes castle so easily...."

"That castle is in a nice place. It's hard to see from afar, Lord Brahms. Even without the boundaries of the lost forest, discovery might have been difficult."

"That's true, my lord. It is a mountain castle that uses mountain terrain well. However, the opponents are Hermes family members who are only good at showing off illusions. Your Majesty, I would like you to take the lead on our Rubić."

"Dangerous, but good?

"Of course. In this battlefield, I will prove to you that my Rubitch family will now work for the Kingdom of Fontana."

"I see. Now, let's ask the Luvic army to take the lead. However, we will also see how they are coming out."

"Of course. Now... let's go, people, now is the time to show us the arm of our sword. Come on!!"

Hermes realm has made progress over some mountains.

Hermes territory has long refused to march, such as the Rubić family, and its defenses are impressive, but it also has drawbacks.

Is that where most of the territory is mountainous?

Not many people seem to live there because they can't create large fields.

However, he still operated the territory by selling valuable items that could be harvested in the mountains.

But that's also been getting tough in recent years.

They sell what they pick in the mountains, but the price is gradually decreasing.

It seems that I was actually the one who had the biggest impact.

Hermes' territory has long been famous for harvesting magical mushrooms.

Magic mushrooms have become a very expensive medicine as a magic healing medicine, and by making and selling them, it has been difficult to harvest crops and operate the area.

But that has changed a lot recently.

Magic mushrooms, which were supposed to be harvested for a limited time, are now traded regardless of the season.

The price of the sale goes down, and the magical mushrooms are sold even at a time when they can't be harvested in Hermes territory.

Speaking of magical mushrooms, the Hermes family and the other nobles used to say all together, but they began to take their place.

The opponent was said to have been a small knight in the aristocratic realm that also bordered the forest.

It was written in response to my previous recommendation to surrender to the Hermes family.

If you wanted to negotiate with my Hermes family, it would have been so influential to see that they had been accused of naming you to stop selling magical mushrooms in Balka.

Well, that said, magic healing medicine can be used for a variety of things, not just medicine.

Barca uses the magic healing medicine to make paper, so I don't think it actually affects the Hermes family that much, but it's still unacceptable that there's a place to get it anytime of the year.

Well, even if they say that, I'm in trouble.

In the first place, I have to wonder if it was fatal to rely on magical mushrooms harvested in such a secret place for finances.

Incidentally, herbs other than magical mushrooms are abundant in this Hermes territory, but it seems to have an impact because the doctor's meme who has been here before brings various herbs to Balka and grows them in the glass greenhouse.

Barca shouldn't be bad.

"Oh, here we go."

The battle began when I thought it would be so painful.

As the Luvich army approached Hermes Castle, a bow attack began.

Normally, that would have caused the damage, but the Luvic army only had to slap him.

The young new leader Brahms runs along with the other knights.

As the knights waved their swords, they cut down the flying arrows.

From what I've heard, there's a legend that Kensei used to be a strong man who knocked down every arrow with his sword all his life.

Looking backwards, I was impressed by the magic of the Rubić family.

It is a very simple magic called Swordsmanship , but you can get the strength of a thousand horses by just singing it.

Moreover, by simply crushing the spell Swordsmanship , the effect continued for a while.

But Rubić's men are practicing their magic without distraction.

It seems that if you don't properly train your body, no matter how much [swordsmanship] magic you use, your body won't follow you.

The Rubić army approached the castle gate with their swords to prevent raining arrows from attacking.

I mean, it's amazing that not only knights and samurai, but also farmers have quite a sword arm.

I thought it was a great difference from Fontana.

"Oh, look, Ars. They're cutting the gates with their swords."

"You're right, part-time brother. But it doesn't seem to be a waste of time. We're about to chop down a thick castle gate. When the Luvich army breaks through the castle gate, the Fontana army will also enter. Let me get ready."

"Oh, I understand."

Excellent work.

House Rubić, especially a young man named Brahms, who became the lord of the nobility, slammed the gates of the castle with a spa.

Apparently, Brahms' sword is a magical sword.

It seems that the sword of the family treasure raised by the ancestors of the Rubić family by its magic has the effect of greatly increasing the agility of the owner.

Moreover, it is as hard as a hard tooth sword, and it has the capability of not spilling blades even if the swords meet each other or cut into the castle gate.

I cut down the gates of Hermes Castle.

But the knight of Hermes, coming from behind the fallen gates, attacked the Luvich army.

Apparently, I had anticipated this and was already waiting beyond the castle gate.

The knights wave their hands and let the leaves of the trees dance into the air.

The next moment, the leaves of the tree became human.

"Oh, it's ninja!!

"What are you talking about, Ars? That's the magic doppelganger used by the knights of the Hermes."

"No, no, no, no. Doppelgangers are like ninjas. Oh, good move, Hermes."

"Why are you so excited, you? Let's go. We're going into the castle."

"Goddamn it, is there anyone who can understand this excitement?"

No, actually, I think it's magic.

A knight uses the leaves of a tree to make his own body, but the strength of his body is apparently the same as that of the original knight.

Moreover, the body is not an illusion, but a substance.

Because one knight has multiple leaves in his body, he simply has to think of several times as many knights as he is.

I think this is quite a big deal.

However, originally it was not such a large territory, and therefore the number of knights was small.

In addition to the powerful Rubić family, known as the master, Fontana's army entered the castle, led by his part-time brother, who rides Valkyrie, and did not have the Hermes family.

Thus the Hermes were defeated by the Fontana army, following the Rubić family.
